Interesting, I don't get the usual menu when I do that. A little square

This sort of problem often means that you tried to use a resource to set
the xterm geometry and wildcarded too many parts of the resource
specifier. Eg, you specified XTerm*Geometry instead of
XTerm*VT100*Geometry. The geometry of the popup menus' windows is
specified in pixels while the geometry of the main xterm window is
specified in characters.
